Gopher software vs Quickbooks

01-24-2010, 11:13 AM

If anyone has used either or both of these programs, I would like to know the benefits of one over the other. I am going to buy one of these but I want to make sure to get the best one for my business.

You can actually sync both programs together

You use Gopher to take care of all your routes/invoices/payments and the rest that is related to lawn care/landscaping

You use Quickbooks and Gopher, sync them together and then you use Quickbooks to do all your taxes and whatever else you need to send to your bookkeeper for tax purposes

Steve****- tell me more about how the scheduling and billing works with gopher.

I would like to have my billing done automatically every month. quickbooks can do this, but it cannot e-mail or print the automatically. I'm looking for more automation to free up my in office time for marketing.

also for my scheduling I have just been using iCal on my MAC which works well, how could gopher help make this even better.

The gopher software is pretty huge in the green industry every time I read a book about running a lawncare/landscaping company they suggest gopher I plan to get it when I can spend the $$$. i downloaded the free version to try and it would really save me some time but right now I have more time than money LOL
